We do come onsite if we determine it is necessary to get the job done or to meet the client and address their immediate needs, if necessary. Note that there is no “software” in our name. We are consultants. We don’t try and sell you any software. Some software companies offer services under the guise of selling you software. We don’t. We will assist you with reviewing IBM DB2 tools or other third party vendor tools if requested and we’ll recommend the product that best fits your needs. We only use the built-in monitoring facilities that come with DB2 and in my opinion, they are more than enough. DB2 LUW has a rich set of built-in monitoring and tuning tools, we’ll show you how to use them. Check out our blog at http://www.philipkgunning.com/blog.
